A unified approach ensures a correct-by-design methodology and eliminates errors caused when separate constraint management tools are used in the schematic and layout environment. All constraints ...

Abstract “Chip floorplanning is the engineering task of designing the physical layout of a computer chip. Despite five decades of research1, chip floorplanning has defied automation, requiring months ...

Novel method for satellite 3D component layout optimization based on mixed integer programming Research team develops mixed integer programming model for optimal multi-module satellite layout ...

ASIC Design is ever-changing and ever-challenging. The key factor with long-existing challenges are high cost (for designing, verification, fabrication), tight deadlines, competition, complexity in ...

This methodological proposal follows a classical engineering thought scheme: it begins with the alternatives study, and ends with the detailed design. With this in mind, the paper includes the ...
